Ceri Jones is a passionate fly-fisherman, professional photographer and holder of the Lough Corrib Ferox Trout Record [23lb 12oz].
The Casting with Ceri Jones podcast is the story of Ceri’s career, the days, weeks and years spent casting from boats and riverbanks. Tales of the catches, the tackle, the lakes, the rivers, the ones that were landed and the ones that got away.
Interviews on location and in the studio, with fellow fishermen, gillies, boatmen, friends, champions and fisheries managers. There will be tackle reviews, venue guides and even the winding yarn of the Big Corrib Catch.
So pull up a chair, settle back, relax and enjoy an uninterrupted hour of fishing talk. Because as Ceri always says “The next best thing to being out fishing … is talking about it”

This weeks episode I chat once again with Sean Thomas, one of the most talented fly tyers in the country. I join him on the river Rhymney in South Wales. We chat about our day together and although fishing all day with leaky waders he manages to catch a specimen grayling. He also touches on his fly tying and of his invitation to tie at the BFFI show next year.
For this week's episode I thought it was about time I dedicated an episode to grayling. It's that time of year when social media is full of photographs of these beautiful fish. For me tho, I never had the passion or urge to catch them so thought it's about time I chatted with someone to see what is the attraction. I chat with one of the most successful river international anglers in the country, Terry Bromwell. He gives methods, flies, tackle, tips and advice on how to catch them for anyone interested in fishing for then in the coming cold winter months ahead.
This week Ceri catches up with Mark Roberts. He shares with us his journey as a fly-fisherman from fishing the rivers in Northern Ireland, while in the army, lough style competition fishing, to being a qualified casting instructor, and onto his love for the River Usk. He talks of Dry fly fishing and interpreting a trout’s rise and some fascinating fly-tying stories.
